For years, Alexx Ekubo’s love life attracted public attention, particularly after his highly publicised engagement and eventual breakup with Fancy Acholonu in 2021.
However, following the Nollywood actor’s tragic passing on May 11, 2026, widespread speculation has emerged across social media suggesting that he had quietly found love again and married entirely away from the spotlight.
As digital platforms flood with unverified claims that he had been privately married for roughly two years before his death, one central question has dominated internet discussions: who is the woman at the centre of these reports?

The Origins of the Online Speculation
The first public hints that ignited the internet’s curiosity emerged after his passing, when Grace Makun, wife of fashion designer Yomi Casual, shared an emotional tribute. In the post, she made reference to a secret marriage, noting that only a very small circle of people were aware of that part of his life because he chose to keep it completely private.
The speculation intensified during Alexx’s service of songs in Lagos on June 10, 2026.
Internet commentators highlighted a tribute where a speaker, identified by online platforms as Anwuli’s sister, described a deeply loving and intentional relationship, stating that the family had warmly welcomed Alexx into their fold.
The Truth?
During the burial, the woman referred to as Anwuli covered her face with a nosemask.
While the story of a hidden, protective marriage has captured the hearts of fans online, it is important to note that no official marriage documents have been made public, and representatives for the family have not issued a formal confirmation.
Though Alexx Ekubo lived his life in the entertainment industry, the exact details of his final years is a masterclass in privacy.
